The meeting was called to order
at 7:10 pm by President Mike Martin. There were 44 people present.
Again Rockys donated their banquet room for our meeting.

Mike Martin welcomed everyone and
reported that Display Day was a success, with 35 airplanes displayed and
one flying Volkswagon, and 70 hot dogs eaten. He also reported as
to what went on at the Aviation Commission Meeting. The 4.5% increase
in hangar rent, due to our protests, was lowered to 3.7% instead.
Also, word that the County police would be patrolling the airport twice
a day, just to show some kind of police presence. The county assured
us that the officers would be trained as to what they can and cannot do.
Mike the fielded some questions from the audience. He then introduced
our airport manager, John Frymyer.

John discussed that the beacon had
finally been repaired and seemed to be lasting this time. He said
some work was being done to clean up the landscaping. He also stated
that he had some issues with what was said by our members at the Commission
Meeting. He mentioned that there were people on the airport with
missing or expired tags, they were abandoned vehicles on the field,
and some businesses were being run without licenses or insurance.
He also stated that some of the dumpsters were removed before he started
working here. He reported that if a porta pottie was needed somewhere,
he would add one. We only have 20 tie-downs left, without disturbing the
Display area. Authorization Passes were ready and please come and
get one from the office. Sept 20 there will be an AirFair Put
on by the optimists and EAA. Also, if your hangar needs maintenance,
please call the office. Then John took questions from the group.

Shellie Hagopian got five bids for
portable office units to be used as the pilot lounge, and submitted them
to Ted Gustin at the last Commission meeting.

Also, our next regular membership
meeting will be Thursday, July 17, at 7pm.
